DDO with Reshader 3

[Maelodic]

Just took a few pictures around the harbor/marketplace:

Reshader 3 can be downloaded at https://reshade.me/ - I use it in Skyrim so I figured I'd try it here and the results are pretty great.
I'm not a great preset-creator so you guys could probably come up with some great stuff.

Wow, does it consume a lot of resources? Anyone else tried this yet?

[Stoner81]

I couldn't get it working, the game crashes just after it launches for me though I could well be doing something wrong.

It consumes more than the base game but a half decent video card (I'm running on a Nvidia Geforce 940M) can run it just fine.

You'll want to install it on the turbinelauncher, and then use DX11.

EDIT: Accidental post, please ignore.

[holdmyale]

does this still work in 2022? how did you deploy this? did you make a text file then save it as .ini?

I'm currently messing around with this and there are no official presets. any further guidance on how to get started with this? or would you recommend just watching YouTube videos on how to use reshade? I definitely prefer a more specific tips regarding DDO, but if I have to I'll watch the youtube videos and figure it out.

after installing the clients and attempting to configure it, I've loaded up video and it seems a lot more complicated than an initially looked. I tried searching the internet and I couldn't find any tutorials. discord channel for reshade was unhelpful regarding DDO.

I was trying to enhance the graphics and touch it up a little bit just like you did. even as a technical person I'm having trouble recreating your setup.

any help in the right direction would be a big thanks and appreciated.

Just took a few pictures around the harbor/marketplace:

does this still work in 2022? how did you deploy this? did you make a text file then save it as .ini?

I'm currently messing around with this and there are no official presets. any further guidance on how to get started with this? or would you recommend just watching YouTube videos on how to use reshade? I definitely prefer a more specific tips regarding DDO, but if I have to I'll watch the youtube videos and figure it out.

after installing the clients and attempting to configure it, I've loaded up video and it seems a lot more complicated than an initially looked. I tried searching the internet and I couldn't find any tutorials. discord channel for reshade was unhelpful regarding DDO.

I was trying to enhance the graphics and touch it up a little bit just like you did. even as a technical person I'm having trouble recreating your setup.

any help in the right direction would be a big thanks and appreciated.

I've got some experience with this.. here is a before/after set after (a very long time of tinkering)

It makes the game a bit darker, but overall sharper (used in fullscreen borderless, it looks quite nice. if you go into full screen, then its a bit over sharpened. )

but take a peek at these images and let me know if you want the shader folder/ini files (it uses some custom stuff that isn't included in reshade 5 nothing crazy, just multiplied layers of a techini color shader ^_^ .)

oh.. is also removes that icky yellow tint that is over the entire game.

The screenshots looks great! Was this using the presets in this post or do you have your own? If so, do you mind sharing?

is there a guide on how to load the presets? I attempted to save presets from this sub to a text file and named it to extension used by the program, but failed to load the file. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I been asking for help in their discord regarding ddo, but no responses yet.

Aye... these are all custom setup --

DDO reshade project V26

use the download button on the top right to download the .zip file, then open the readme.txt in the zip for further instructions.

I'll copy/paste the readme here too:

DDO reshade project Beta
Release candidate: V26
BETA: V27/28/29 ADDED -- not dialed in for Dell monitor - still in testing.


Install steps:
1) download reshade from https://reshade.me
https://reshade.me/downloads/ReShade_Setup_5.0.0.exe

2) open ReShade_Setup_5.0.0.exe as admin

3) Using the Reshade installer -> select DX10/11/12, then find your DDO install on the list, or add it manually.
Note: if you use the 64bit client, you'll need to navigate to the DDO\x64 folder, and target dndclient64.exe as the install point.

4) It'll ask what shader packs to install - **ignore this\install whatever - we're overwriting the shaders folder anyways.**

5) Navigate to your DDO or DDO\x64 folder - find the reshade-shaders folder - inside it should show as 2 folders
Shaders and Textures. Delete the Shaders folder from the DDO install directory.

6) Copy the Shaders folder from the zip into your DDO\reshade-shaders, or DDO\x64\reshade-shaders directory
6A) Make sure the DDO_reshade and DDO_RSP ini files are extracted in your DDO root directory, or X64 directory. (this helps in step 10.) ***

7) Load DDO - log into your char as usual

8) Once you're fully loaded, press the Home button on the keyboard

This will open a new overlay UI - this is reshades settings/options menu

9) click to the settings tab - i set my toggle to ctrl+f11 and reload shaders to ctrl+12
Optional, you can also scroll down till you see FPS/clock and have a on screen realtime clock on your corner, with your FPS .

-- double check ---- you need to make sure the INI files are located in the DDO directory (either ddo\x64 , or DDO\ - so you can find them on your file system. )


10) click back to the Home tab - on the top of that tab you'll see a blue bar at the top, click on that, then use the windows file manager to find the DDO_reshade_project_V26_dell.ini
10a) (says dell because it was dialed in using a dell P2417H - [ monitor settings: bightness 75 contrast 75 - sharpness 90 - Color mode standard])


make sure the Performance check box at the bottom is checked, and close the reshade menu with the home button again.


as you move around the game, use your toggle to see the difference in the area by pressing whatever you set your toggle to in step 9.
(Note toggle is important some quests use color as a queue and colors are slightly off due to the color matrix settings.
Quests like: Too Hot to Handle, disable the shaders, or your colors might be wrong on your puzzles )


If you end up not liking reshade, use the reshade installer again, target the dndclient.exe or dndclient64.exe and it'll have a remove/uninstall option


Hope you enjoy the settings!

*** forgot the step where you put the INI files into the DDO root/X64 directory. -- Corrected in readme.txt and on post.

I just wanted to let you know that i got the message. You're awesome for trying to help.

Thanks for your time and consideration for contributing for my small project.

I will thoroughly test this and get a response back here when I get time.

Thanks & Regards
